Parking tickets in Las Vegas will be costing drivers in dolls not dollars this holiday season thanks to a new city program.
The Las Vegas Review-Journal reports that the Las Vegas City Council on Wednesday approved a pilot program that will allow people who receive some parking tickets between Nov. 15 and Nov. 30 to donate a toy of equal or greater value as payment for the fine.
Toys will be accepted through Dec. 15 as part of the "Toys for Tickets" program and will be donated to a local domestic violence shelter.
More than a dozen violations are excluded from the program including public safety and handicapped-related violations as well as double parking, blocking or facing traffic and fire hydrant violations.
